1. Zimmerman Z Coat rotors are MB replacement actually - the Z-Coat is for storage to prevent surface oxidation in shipping/dealer stock. By VIN# available for both front and back rotors - check if your rear's are "solid" or "ventilated" which will not necessarily show up by VIN#
2. Textar is somewhat cheaper than Pagid (both owned by same company) - if going for a OE type pad I prefer Pagid. For lower "dust" some move to Semi-Metallic or Ceramic. On semi-metallic Bosch Quiet Cast or Wagoner Thermo Quiet brands can offer decent pads for good price - I am not a fan of ceramic but that's me - some love them.

I have that combo on my ML350. Same performance as original rotors and pads. I also notices less dust. Get it.
